the taliban gets it, gets what we're doing. they know that the bond between the afghan security forces and our forces will ultimately be what causes them to be defeated. and so they target it. and i'm sure you'll be interested in speaking about the insider threat we face. in my most recent visit to theater, i spoke with leaders at every level about the insider threat, and they all agree we can't let that threat discourage or dissuade us from our objectives, but we must keep our eye on that threat. it is a very serious threat. but our commitment to the relationship and to the objectives remain strong. isaf was built, is being built, and the ansf that we're building on 63 years of nato experience. and nato has proven itself. it transcends transactional relationship. it exists on the basis of shared values. my fellow chiefs of defense at nato and i have gathered four times over the past year, and i've met with many of them one-on-one. i can tell you while there are challenges ahead for both of us, our bonds are as strong as ever.
